About me

Thank you for taking the time to view my Web page. I'm glad to have the chance to introduce myself, and I look forward to working with you to care for your health.

Biography

I was born and raised in Southern California. I have always aspired to become a doctor. I am the only doctor from my family. For college, I headed east and attended the University of Pennsylvania where I majored in English and minored in chemistry. During my junior year, I studied at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland. I graduated from the Medical College of Pennsylvania and was inducted into the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society.

About my practice

I have been practicing emergency medicine at Kaiser Permanente at the Baldwin Park Medical Center since 1999. In 2008, I transferred back to the San Fernando Valley to be closer to my family. I enjoy my specialty because I can see and treat all people of all ages. Each shift is unique and I enjoy the unexpected.

How I thrive

I try to lead a balanced, healthy lifestyle in all aspects of my life. I ride an exercise bike four to six times a week. Our family continues to develop by eating healthy and trying new foods and recipes.
